Question

1) State Archimede's principle and give its importance. Explain why a nail made of iron sinks but a ship
made of iron floats.​

Answer 1

Answer:

As the density of an iron nail is more than that of water, the nail sinks in water. ... The volume of water displaced is much greater than the volume of the iron ship. Hence, according to Archimedes' principle, the upthrust is more than the weight of the ship. That is why the iron ship floats in water.

Answer 2

Archimedes priniciple states that when an object id partially or fully immersed in water I experiences an upthrust force equal to the weight of the fluid displaced

A nail sinks because r upthrust force does not act on it whilea ship doesnot so as upthrust force acts on it

Upthrust force is the upward force that acts in an object.
